《 Yet To Realize 》

Val's POV

I quickly got out of our house as I realized my dear brother was going to go in the kitchen to feast on his beloved ice cream.
.
.
.
Yes. He is a monster for ice cream.
.
.
.
And as I opened the gate, I could feel my brother's aura change to a deadly one. Though I doubt any other person would notice it, since they always mark him intimidating, but I just see him as a blunt person.
.
.
.
"VALERIA RYKER!"
.
.
.
My brother's screech could be heard across the whole neighborhood. I quickly went to my grey car, ready to escape my brother's brutality. Him screeching my name was enough to make any person scared.
.
.
.
I just wanted to eat something cold, but maybe instead of eating his damned ice cream I should have-
.
.
.
My thoughts were cut off as I checked my pocket for my car keys, only to discover that I had left it at the kitchen table.
.
.
.
Oh great f*c*.
.
.
.
I didn't let myself think as I ran. Because how the hell will I escape him if I don't have my car keys?
.
.
.
And so  I ran and ran.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I slowed my running to a stop as I saw a familliar place. I memorized the route from here to our house, so hopefully my brother couldn't have followed me. I hope.
.
.
.
Thankfully I'm much more faster at running than him. But I can never beat his combat skills. Atleast I can survive a zombie apocalypse. I doubt his combat skills will be of need at those times.
.
.
.
I'll just wait until he cools down, so I could go home. These times have happened enough that he should be used to it, but nah.
.
.
.
He loves his ice cream too much.
.
.
.
I just sighed as I neared the familliar tree that I used to climb up with..with someone who was long gone. It was now a bit more taller, but I haven't forgotten how to climb.
.
.
.
I clumsily climbed up, careful to not let myself slide. And finally rested my back on a big branch, luckily if my brother ever followed me, he wouldn't see me up here. Let's just hope he can't climb too.
.
.
.
Hope, I've been using that word a lot lately. Ha, how funny.
.
.
.
I settled down on the branch, steadying myself
allowing my mind to finally settle down on what had surprised me.
.
.
.
I was baffled when I found out that Ric- oh god my very own brother, found his foe. Although I'm not really sure, we can always confirm it when he checks the girl's tattoes.
.
.
.
Not that we know which one was the right tatto for the enemy anyway.
.
.
.
The rules of the matching tattoes, as we call it, are many. One, you cannot show your tattoes to someone, the exception is that you can show it when someone, who is either your enemy and lover(though you haven't confirmed it with your tattoes) asks if they could see it.
.
.
.
Only then can a few trusted people see it.
.
.
.
(EXPLANATION FOR THE TATTOES:
•magdedevelop ang tatto sa iyong kamay sa edad na 6
•walang dapat makakakita sa iyong tatto (exception ang mga parents)

-on to the story-

(Nin's POV)
After School- at Reglin Residence

"May balita ka na ba?"
.
.
.
Tanong ko kay Cypro. Gaya ng sinabi ko kay Bea, isang up-and-coming detective si Cypro.
.
.
.
Ngayon, nandito ako sa bahay ng mga Reglin. Inayos ko pagka-upo ko at nag-gulp.
.
.
.
"Hmm..wala pa naman. But don't worry, I'm getting a few snippets on this case. I'm really thankful for you assigning me on this." Sabi niya. Blonde siya at kulay grey yung mga mata niya.
.
.
.
"Haha okay lang, besides, para din ito sa kaibigan ko. I promised her I'd help her, and I am not one to take back promises." 
.
.
.
Tumingin siya saken at tinaasan ko siya ng kilay. "Baket?" Tanong ko. Tri-ny ko best ko na parang maging professional.
.
.
.
"Nothing, its just, I don't always hear you speak english. You only speak it when your either angry or just in the mood." Sabi niya.
.
.
.
Aba't bakit ko naman kailangan mag english palagi? Parang ang over naman nun.
.
.
.
"Wala lang. Ba't ba? Shooketh ka?" Sabi ko, nagjojoke ako okey.
.
.
.
Napa-ngisi siya. "Psh, you would be surprised if I was not intrugued. Pero andami na ng nangyayari sa palagid natin. But you..."
.
.
.
"Don't. Don't even think about continuing what you were saying." Galit na sabi ko.
.
.
.
"Nin.."
.
.
.
Ayoko. Hindi ko pa kaya. Andami ko pang iniisip.
.
.
.
"Aalis na ako." Madali kong sabi. "See ya tomorrow,Cypro."
.
.
.
.
.
.
------- the next day

Gee. Nakakatense yung convo ko kay Cypro kahapon ah.
.
.
.
Nasa library ako ngayon, gusto ko muna ng peace and quiet. Gusto kong mapalayo sa lahat ng thoughts na nasa isip ko.
.
.
.
Higit sa lahat, gusto kong mapalayo sa lalaking yon!
.
.
.
At san pa ba tayo pupunta upang merong peace and quiet? 'Library!'
.
.
.
Yan ang sinabi ni Amrie magaling.
.
.
.
At ngayon nandito ako sa Library ng school namin. Study Hall namin ngayon at dahil magkasama kami ng mga kaibigan ko mag-lulunch, nandito ako, naghihintay na magring na ang bell para sa lunch time.
.
.
.
Naghahanap ako ng libro tungkol sa history ng mga Romans. Why naman? Ewan ko den, basta it caught my interest.
.
.
.
Pagkatapos kong maghanap ng iba pang mga libro na sa tingin ko ay nakakainteres sakin, ay naghanap na ako ng uupuan ko.
.
.
.
Tumitingin ako sa left at right ko, naghahanap ng mga pwesto na pwedeng basahan. Pano ba kase, malaki tong Library namin e. Parang ano-
.
.
.
*bump*
.
.
.
"Ah shit-" Sabi ng nabunggo ko. "Sorry. But you should also mind your direction. Why do I always bump into someone-" Sabi nito. Nasa isang medyo dark na corner kami ng library kaya hindi ko medyo makita mukha niya.
.
.
.
Nag-crouch siya dahil pinupulot niya yung mga libro na na-drop niya. Sa buhok at uniform niya, parang lalaki yata.
.
.
.
Hindi ko nadrop mga libro ko dahil tatlo lang ito. At dahil ang higpit ng paghawak ko nito.
.
.
.
Pero yung sa lalaki, or sino man yan, napaka rami ng dinadala, mga sampu ata? Ewan ko kung mababasa niya yan lahat.
.
.
.
Nung nag-adjust na ang mga mata ko sa dilim, sabay ng pagtayo ng maayos ng lalaki ay nakilala ko kung sino ito.
.
.
.
Kung minamalas ka naman oh.
.
.
.
Ang nabunggo ko ay walang iba kundi si Mister Blunt.
.
.
.
"Bakit ba ikaw nalang palagi nababangga ko?" Una na sabi ko. Nung nakilala na niya kung sino ako ay nag frown lang siya. May mga libro pa sa sahig pero hindi pa niya pinulot dahil siguro makita kung sino ang nabangga niya.
.
.
.
"How the hell would I know?" Ang sabi niya.
.
.
.
Ri-noll ko nalang ang mga mata ko at yumuko.
.
.
.
Narrator's Voice

(sumunod nalang kayo sa mga ginagawa ko na kagagagohan => )

Tinaas ni Stryker ang kilay niya at nagulat nung narealize niya na pinupulot ni Niña ang mga libro na nasa sahig pa.
.
.
.
"Oh eto," sabi ni Nin. Nandun lang si Stryker, nakatayo dahil sa gulat. "Pre, baka maabotan tayo ng Midnight with Jazuer Frox sa kakaslow mo." Aniya niya din.
.
.
.
Dun na nagising si Stryker, "O-okay. Thanks, I guess.."
.
.
.
"Welkam."
.
.
.
At dun, nakita ni Stryker ang chansa para makita ang tattoo ni Nin. Binuka niya ang kaniyang bibig para magsalita,
.
.
.
"Hey this is weird but-"
.
.
.
*bell rings*
.
.
.
There goes my chance. Ang thought ni Stryker.
.
.
.
"Hays, ge, Stryker, punta nako. Wag mona ako bungguin. Bye."
.
.
.
Nag-nod lang ang lalaki, siguro gulat paren sa mga nangyayari.
.
